U.S. Marines with II Marine Expeditionary Force participate in a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) class taught by Roberto “Cyborg” Abreu, a 7-time World No-Gi Champion, during Fleet Week Miami at Fight Sports Club Miami, May 8, 2024. Fleet Weeks are a tradition of the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, where major U.S. cities host Marines, Sailors, and Coast Guardsmen for one week of community-wide events. Fleet Week Miami, in its first year, is an opportunity for residents and visitors to meet with service members, foster community relationships, and view the latest capabilities of today’s maritime services.
